- Application
- Existing Concrete or Paving Stones (more than 30 days): The surface to be coated must be clean. Remove dust, dirt, oils and greases, tire mark, and any remaining coating that is incompatible with SCT 30. Once the surface is thoroughly cleaned and dry, apply the first coat of SCT 30 with a roller, brush or sprayer at the suggested yield and repeat for the second coat if necessary.
- New concrete (concrete with a minimum of 7 days of curing): The surface to be coated must be clean. Remove dust, dirt, oils and greases, tire mark, and any remaining coating that is incompatible with SCT 30. Once the surface is thoroughly cleaned and dry, apply the first coat of SCT 30 with a roller, brush or low-pressure sprayer at the suggested yield and repeat for the second coat if necessary.
- Restrictions
- Do not apply at temperatures below 10°C / 50°F or above 30°C / 86°F.
- The relative humidity of the surrounding work environment during the application of the coating and throughout the curing process should not exceed 85%.
- Substrate temperature must be 3°C (5.5°F) above dew point measured.
- Humidity content of substrate must be <4% when coating is applied.
- Do not apply on porous surfaces where a transfer of humidity may occur during the application.
- The application of this coating on an interior or exterior substrate without a moisture barrier is at risk of detachment (by hydrostatic pressure).
- Protect the coating from all sources of moisture for a period of 48 hours.
- Surface may discolor in areas exposed to regular ultraviolet light.
